KEY MESSAGES

-Persistent fair weather conditions expected throughout the forecast period, with near average temperatures.

SHORT TERM

(Tonight through Monday night) Issued at 926 PM CST Sat Nov 7 2026

Fair weather conditions will continue throughout the short term forecast period. The main H500, centered just east of the Gulf of California in northern Mexico as of that latest 04Z obs continues to gradually move east towards the Rio Grande River Valley by Monday. Downstream of the main H500 low, some clouds are reaching the far southern TX Panhandle, but all of the rain chances still remain well south of the Panhandles. Mostly clear skies across all of the Panhandles will return by Sunday and remain over the region. High temperatures on Sunday will range from the mid 60s in the western Panhandles to lower 70s in the eastern Panhandles, with highs on Monday a degree or two warmer than Sunday across the board.

LONG TERM

(Tuesday through next Saturday) Issued at 926 PM CST Sat Nov 7 2026

Dry weather pattern continues across the Panhandles throughout the long term forecast period. An H500 ridge will build into the intermountain west by middle of next week. Latest 08/00Z model and numerical guidance illustrate a deepening sinusoidal pattern that will eventually result in an omega block setting up by the end of the forecast period. Large scale UL subsidence over the ridge will keep us dry. Overall temperatures through the coming work week into the first half of the weekend will be near to slightly above average as we approach mid November.
